Dr. Miller's research focuses on the intersection of health disparities and race. She has served as project director for several studies designed to augment care by promoting collaboration among physicians, patients and families. Dr. Miller's work in improving asthma outcomes through school and community interventions was noted by the American Academy of Asthma, Allergy and Immunology with a 2006 Special Recognition Award. Prior to joining the University of Chicago in January 2009, Dr. Miller served as national program director of New Health Partnerships, a demonstration project funded by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the California Health Care Foundation on collaborative self-management support.
